Tonight I find myself alone I bed
And I still remember every word that you said
Goodbye echoes inside of my head
But that was years ago and I can’t recall your name
Only a figure and face
As my fingertips trace
The last place our eyes had met
The last space where I am dead
Where I am dead
Never was a worse day
Never was a worse day for something like this
Never was a worse day
Never was a worse day for something like this
It goes something like this
I gave up on us that night
I gave in to all my pride
I held your hand so tight
But slipped a bottle inside
A pillbox controls my mind
So close yet out of sight
Your name escapes in time
Where once our fingers entwined
Now I hold my iron and wine
Sobbing soaked I choke daylight
Awaiting the night
Tonight I wish that things might change
But I remain locked in a box of chains
Goodbye resounds in what I have made
And it was years ago that I first called your name
Oh your figure and face
My fingers reached for grace
The last chance I placed my bet
The last glance that shot me dead
Shot me dead
Never was a worse day
Never was a worse day for something like this
Never was a worse day
Never was a worse day for something like this
It goes something like this
I gave up on us that night
I gave in to all my pride
I held your hand so tight
But slipped a bottle inside
A pillbox controls my mind
So close yet out of sight
Your name escapes in time
Where once our fingers entwined
Now I hold my iron and wine
Sobbing soaked I choke daylight
Awaiting the night
Never was a worse day
Never was a worse day for something like this
Never was a worse day
Never was a worse day for something like this
For something like this

Flowers

I’d buy you fresh flowers every day
I’d leave on the table by the door
So you might think of me while you’re away
We’d take vacations to the seashore
Where and when I’d tell you I love you more every day
And you would say
Today is the day
There are no more words to say
To share how I feel right now
From the sand on the beach to stars in the sky
Hand in hand we can reach every star shining bright
From our minds to our hearts to our souls
We two have become one whole
You are my world and I love you so
I’d lay my kiss on your cheek
Every night before you sleep
And drift off into dreams
Of soft spring streams
Of autumn breeze shiver leaves on oak trees
Until you awake in wrapped in silver sheets
Where and when I’d tell you I love you more every day
And you would say
Today is the day
There are no more words to say
To share how I feel right now
From the sand on the beach to stars in the sky
Hand in hand we can reach every star shining bright
From our minds to our hearts to our souls
We two have become one whole
You are my world and I love you so
You know I’d die to save your life
I’d sell my soul just to keep you close
I am the shoulder on which you cry
Those are the nights in which time slows
I am your iron you are my wine
I know all I need is our love so glorious so alive
It doesn't matter where, it doesn't matter when
All that matters is that I let you know
I love you so much more every single day
I love you so
And you will always say
Today is the day
There are no more words to say
To share how I feel right now
From the sand on the beach to stars in the sky
Hand in hand we can reach every star shining bright
From our minds to our hearts to our souls
We two have become one whole
You are my world and I love you so

Rock And Roll

Oh I'm an instigator
I'm a hellhound hater
You know I wish I’d thought this through
But when I feel rock
And I feel the roll
You know the rush is what has got me through
My bodies in shock
My mind is out cold
And now I'm smoking and I'm drinking and I am totally out of control
If you want just a little love
If you need just scream and shout
If you know push comes to shove
Then you know what I'm all about
Then follow me to the easy way out
Oh we’re streetwise trash
We’re in knee-high cash
You know we never thought this through
But when we feel the rock
And we feel the roll
You know the rush is what has got us through
Our bodies on the block
Our brains burning oil
And now we’re choking now we’re sinking and we are totally out of control
If you want just a little love
If you need just scream and shout
If you know push comes to shove
Then you know what I'm all about
Then follow me to the easy way out
Oh rock and roll aint just for kids
It’s for us all who never grow old
You know rock and roll aint just for kicks
We’ll sing along until we break the mold

So The Story Ends
01:56

This blade so sharp
Has played its part
Cut through the depths
So perilous
Within my heart
When I lose my head
I search the shed
To find my mind
But it seems this time
I'm as good as dead
Now what's so bad
Bout being sad
And giving in
I've given up
On drink and drugs
Yet I still sin
Spin and spit and slit my throat
To cleanse my soul
Maybe baby you'll my shady blood soaked coat
I hung it outside of my hole
I dug in deep
The walls are steep
And I got no rope
Seems like I said
I'm good as dead
Without a hope
Well one day I hope they’ll say
He was a good man who just lost his way
Because sometimes lies
Sound so much more nice
Than what we hide from the light of day
So the story ends
When the madman grins
What else can I say
Sometimes evil wins
Such is the way of men
Coloring the sunshine in shades of gray
